Copying discs

With MAGIX Speed burnR you can copy any type of disc. In the following section we will explain how

to copy a disc using audio CDs and DVDs as examples.

Adjust copy settings

Select the source drive that contains the disc that you would like to make a 1:1 copy of. Next select the

target drive (burner). If you have a combination drive that can read and burn, you can set the device as a

source and target drive. The disc that you are copying is then imported first. You will then be asked to

insert the disc you want to write to. The imported content wil then be burned onto the now inserted disc.

Select "Direct copy" if you want to copy the disc without caching on the hard drive (on-the-fly). If you

want to temporarily copy the data onto your hard drive first, you should uncheck this button. In the box

below, select a directory where you want to save the temporary files.

Note

: If you you are using the same drive as source and target (combination drive), "direct" copying

(on-the-fly) is not possible.

Then select the desired copy method. You can choose between "Sector copy" and "File copy". Sector

copy is the default for copying 1:1 discs. File copy also copies 1:1, but also allows additional files to be

added (depending on size of the memory). Next, click on "Continue" to proceed to the burn window.
